Sending 60,000 plus emails

AutoResponsePlus can handle it (I think it costs more than $150 though) but mailing speed is based on the server it is installed on. You will need your own server though because no shared account will let you do what you want to do.

Are you sure you only want to do 5,000-10,000 per hour? For a large list it will take more than a day to send out the messages. If you needed to send out a message where urgency was an issue, you can't.

I also think you'll need to be careful as well even on your own server, you'll be screwed if it gets blacklisted but otherwise I second AutoResponsePlus

You better hope that 60K list is clean clean clean! You'll get shut down fast if you mail anything commercial to it and it's the typical bought list. This isn't 1999. Those days are (sadly) long gone.

You can use a free email script to do your mailing, but
5000-10,000 an hour will get your server blacklisted.

You need a dedicated server too, so the script license isn't
the major cost anyway, it's renting the server. You can
own your own server too and run it in a spare room or
whatever - if you aren't hosting sites on the servers
even an older PC will probably work fine for emailing.

A friend of mine with a non-profit list mails from a server -
400 per hour I think is what he uses. He's been doing it for
years and says staying at this level gets lets him stay
under the radar. If he mails much more the big ISPs bounce the
emails and they don't get delivered.

If you need fast delivery of lots of emails at the same time you
either have to be willing to convince ISPs to let you mail
(and in some cases pay them) to their customers... or you should
run the list through a service that has already negotiated
terms of delivery.

You should ask around among people who mail big lists off
their own servers - I doubt you will find many with the guts to
mail more than 1000 at a time.

People who run subscription-based AR services are in another
class of user. They're in the business of begging ISPs to deliver
their email. It's a lot of work I have heard.

you can use email interspire marketer, because it does not need a monthly fee .. so just enough time payment only:

I cannot recommend strongly enough that you use a 3rd party site like Aweber. I have a legit site that sends out tens of thousands of legitimate mails per day. These are status mails sent to my registered users for a real-time auction services site, and the mails are sent out strictly due to user input (something like the email eBay sends out when you bid on an auction). We have been doing business on the web since 1999 and still a shockingly high percentage (not far below 10%) end up in the bit bucket.

Places like Constant Contact and AWeber, however, have spent years and years conditioning their IPs, dealing successfully with the mandarins of the blacklists (don't get me started on the blacklists, which are incredibly difficult to reach, because of course they don't want to be gamed) and doing sundry other tasks to get a high delivery rate.

I promise that with those quantities, doing the job yourself is impossible without a couple years of preparation. Even then you won't get the kind of delivery rate that Aweber does.

No, I have no connection to AWeber. But I sure know mass email issues.
